Music of the Moment

In an attempt to hit every genre and hopefully satisfy one of your tastes, here is some music that I am currently listening to in no order whatsoever.

Waiting Around to Die - The Be Good Tanyas
Maybe it's the kick drum. Maybe it's my obsession with folk music. Maybe it's because this Townes Van Zandt cover graced my ears while rewatching Breaking Bad this week, and I realized it encapsulated everything amazing about the show into one song. 

The Song of the Golden Dragon - Estas Tonné
Long hair and wicked fingernails make one amazing European artist.

Un-thinkable (I'm Ready) - Alicia Keys

Although I am usually inclined to dislike anything Alicia Keys, after awhile this song has really grown on me. And, speaking as a biracial person, this music video is crucial on so many levels. Even if you you've already made your judgments on the song, at least appreciate the video.

Strangers - Seven Lions with Myon & Shane 54 feat. Tove Lo

I can't leave my fellow EDM people out. Take out the earbuds and put on some legitimate headphones.

Adore You - Miley Cyrus

I freely admit I love Miley. Besides the fact that she is the most entertaining person, she can also sing. This has been my favorite song ever since her album was released, so I'm ecstatic she's finally paired this up with an unsurprisingly outrageous, scandalous, ridiculous music video. Say what you want about the girl, she is an expert in viral marketing. 

I conclude with my musical question of the week:

Am I the only person who isn't obsessed with Beyoncé? Clearly some Sasha Fierce-flavored Kool-Aid is being dispensed and people are slurping it up.
